I accidentally married a "CEO"

12 Your Place or Mine

Jeff and Ann, we're both blushing like two teenagers that just got caught with their hand in the cookie jar by their parents.

Both were embarrassed to show their faces; they have always acted superior in front of Ronald and Lea.

"Lea, why don't you go home first; we could talk about the contract later." Ann needed to show them who's the boss.

"Ronald, didn't you say you have family in this area that you haven't see in a long time? Why don't you take a week's vacation and spend some time with them?

'What family is he talking about? He knows very well that everyone's back in Asia; however if he wants to give me a week's vacation, who am I to argue with the boss, a week's vacation then it is.' Ronald thought to himself.

Ronald and lea got the message and decided to go along with their scheme. They took off, leaving just the two lovebirds by themselves.

"My place or yours?" Jeff asked Ann with eager eyes; a little concern was showing on his face, afraid of what her reply would be.

Ann thought for a moment. 'We can't go to my place Lea is there. We can't go to too many places either because people might recognize me.' She's was getting a headache trying to figure out how to answer Jeff.

'I might not be that famous, but people know me, and I need to be careful of my image.'

No other option left. "Let's go to your place!" She told Jeff.

The Doorman instantly recognized Jeff when they arrived at the Hotel. " Good evening CEO Go!"

Jeff nodded and continued helping Ann out of the car gently.

The doorman couldn't help smiling a little when he saw his boss with a beautiful young girl, 'They sure look perfect for each other' He thought.

Then it suddenly occurred to him that he knew that face, she's not very famous, but she's outstanding.

His face lit up thinking; 'If he can get a picture of them together, it would be worth a lot if sold to the right tabloid. But does he want to lose his job?' He decided against it.

Jeff saw the doorman's suspicious expression; he took action and hurriedly tucked and covered Ann with his coat, hiding her face from full view. 'It is not good if she gets some bad press about her. He needs to do something about that doorman. Discretion is an essential virtue.'

They hurriedly went into his private elevator. As soon as the door closed, Ann wanted to be free from Jeff's arm that was hugging her.

Ann was still dizzy from all the alcohol she consumed. Their last interaction was too much for her to handle. 'I needed some distance from him, if not who knows what will happen. I might jump him.' She thought to herself.

Jeff had other ideas though, he turned Ann to face him and just looked at her...staring..staring and staring some-more...then...slowly inching, inching closer to her lips when he was about to touch the sweet red lips.

*DING!!* The elevator door opened, [WTFFFF] Jeff sighed in frustration. "What did I do to deserve this? Ahhhhh, I can't believe this, isn't four years long enough?" he muttered to himself loud enough for Ann to hear.

Ann took advantage of the situation, and ducked from under his arms, escaping from him and hurriedly got out of the elevator. With a teasing smile, "Aren't you coming yet?"

Jeff had no choice but to come out of the elevator unhappily. He followed Ann towards the living room of the penthouse in deep thought of how he would be able to accomplish his goal.

Jeff hurriedly caught up to Ann, scratching his head like a teenager. "What now?" he thought.

Ann sat down at the sofa, waiting for Jeff to do the same.

Jeff did not sit down and instead went to the small bar in the room, "What would you like? Wine or cocktail?" he asked.

"Just club soda, please, if you have any."

Jeff made himself a glass of martini and poured club soda for Ann then sat down next to her on the sofa.

He was nervous and excited at the same time, and he was so enthusiastic that he spilled some of the club soda onto Ann's dress when he handed over her the drink. " I'm sorry!... Sorry! Let's clean you up., I have a shirt you can put on temporarily, and we can send your dress to for to the laundry" (good move Jeff)

"It's alright! I won't be staying that long anyway., I can do it at home., No big deal," Ann told Jeff.

'This won't do., I need to think of a way, ' Jeff thought.....,

(Ann.....)-( Jeff....)

Both said their name at the same time.

"You first!"

" No, you first!" Again…...

Finally, Jeff spoke first. "About before..."

Ann interrupted him before he could finish his sentence.

"About what happened before, please! Think of it as if that it never happened. Sure when you left, I was upset at first, but that was just due to the shock of waking up and finding you gone."

"What happened was....." Jeff was going to say something, but Ann interrupted him again.

"Let me finish first, ok!". Jeff nodded, and Ann continued, "As I was saying... we should let bygones be bygones. What happened between us was just an accident; we were both at the same place at the right time.

I needed a fake husband and you..... I don't know.....?

We slept together, (with my consent,) and the next day, we went our separate ways. Did I forget anything?"... Ann's voice was starting to crack and getting lower and lower.

Jeff felt like a jerk; he deserved to be called a Jerk! With a capital J.," He wanted to console her right now, hug her and tell her it was no accident it was fate. But, he was afraid she would bolt and leave if he came near her right now.

He let her continue and waited until she was done before he said anything.

"So! You're telling me right now that it did not bother you one bit, that I took your virginity, (you took mine too, you know) then left just like that, leaving only a note? You were fine with that?" Jeff asked her furiously.

"This is a first for me! Any other girl would have been..."

"But, I'm not any other girl!" Ann replied, madly. "What happened is in the past. Can't we get on with our lives? You go your way; I go mine."

"What if I don't want to go my own way?" Jeff screamed back at Ann.

"What if I want to take responsibility for what happened!"

"What if I say I want to stay married to you for the rest of our lives!"

"What if I fell in love with you the first time I met you! Would you.... accept me?"

"What if I want to make this official?"

Then Jeff knelt, and pulled out a ring and asking her one more time, "WILL YOU BE MY WIFE FOR REAL THIS TIME?????"
